Jen
Jen grew up in beautiful Montana, where she gained a profound affection for the outdoors, but she knew she was meant to be a California girl. While working as a software engineer, She bought her first motorcycle as a faster mode of transportation. Not long after, Jen joined an all-women’s sport-bike club (Curve Unit), dedicated to the growth of the female riding community. From there, she was hooked and now rides every weekend, on a mission to experience as many incredible roads as possible.

From corporate to full-time passion
No experienced rider can deny how therapeutic riding a motorcycle can be.
As former tech and marketing executives based in San Francisco, we've lived the quintessential Silicon Valley circuit. We still believe in an honest "change the world" mission, yet grew increasingly dissatisfied with the short-term business model busy keeping our attention online instead of developing genuine connections with nature and other communities.
We believe in the power of safe and social motorcycle riding to rekindle our authentic (real world) connections with one another, with nature, and more importantly within ourselves.
After a sunny group ride in beautiful Marin county, the "why not?" idea came up... and Native Moto Adventures was born!
Because of our roots, we are also committed to serving the NorCal moto riding community through our work with the San Francisco Bay Area Moto Meetup and Curve Unit (non-profit dedicated to the progress and growth of female motorcycle riders).
